The Best

This group is amazing. I got arrested for a DV case on Christmas Eve, my mom and sister hired them on a Saturday, and Sunday morning an attorney named Hugo came to see me. He gave me hope and assured me that they would do everything in their power to get me out. Because it was the holidays, plus they... added a felony hold on my bond due to another case I had open. They fought to get me out. Once i got out i was assigned another lawyer, her name is Dayna Clark, and she is amazing. Not only she got my DV case dismissed, but she got me back on a program to just take a course and do some community service hours for my case to be dismissed as well, wish the PD told me was in impossible. Thank you so much! 100 STARS from me

Your number 1 emotional client

Andrew Rier, Vanessa and May did an amazing job not once, not twice but three times they help me resolve my case to be dismiss/ no action. I can’t but thank them for the hard work they put in especially Andrew. Andrew and I have a love/ hate relationship but he truly was there for me at the end to fi...nish my last case so I’m happy I hired him and his team for my case.

"I strongly endorse Andy. He literally pulled a miracle by winning a murder trial where the evidence was overwhelming in which I had the co-Defendant and due to his skills, my client's case also got dismissed. Andy is also one of few attorneys in Miami who is never afraid to go to trial and gets the results for his clients."
